I pick and choose what I want to put on what. Instead of just dropping a single, I like putting projects together.
A Boogie wit da Hoodien
I don't remember ever stealing things, but I suppose I was endlessly borrowing money off people.
A. A. Gill
You will be better advised to watch what we do instead of what we say.
A. A. Milne
One of the dreams of Zionism was to be a bridge. Instead, we are creating exclusion between the East and the West instead of creating bridges; we are contributing to the conflict between East and West by our stupid desire to have more.
A. B. Yehoshua
A liberal education is at the heart of a civil society, and at the heart of a liberal education is the act of teaching.
A. Bartlett Giamatti
Teaching is an instinctual art, mindful of potential, craving of realizations, a pausing, seamless process.
Teachers believe they have a gift for giving; it drives them with the same irrepressible drive that drives others to create a work of art or a market or a building.
I am sure it is one's duty as a teacher to try to show boys that no opinions, no tastes, no emotions are worth much unless they are one's own. I suffered acutely as a boy from the lack of being shown this.
A. C. Benson
An Englishman teaching an American about food is like the blind leading the one-eyed.
A. J. Liebling
Chicago seems a big city instead of merely a large place.
I should prefer to have a politician who regularly went to a massage parlour than one who promised a laptop computer for every teacher.
A. N. Wilson
My kind publishers, Toby Mundy and Margaret Stead of Atlantic Books, have commissioned me to write the life of Queen Victoria.
Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember me as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honour for me.
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are the father, the mother and the teacher.
Let me define a leader. He must have vision and passion and not be afraid of any problem. Instead, he should know how to defeat it. Most importantly, he must work with integrity.
The purpose of education is to make good human beings with skill and expertise... Enlightened human beings can be created by teachers.
Creativity is the key to success in the future, and primary education is where teachers can bring creativity in children at that level.
A teacher should have a creative mind.
Great teachers emanate out of knowledge, passion and compassion.
I was a disadvantaged child from a non-educated family, yet I had the advantage of being in the company of great teachers.
Everything is discursive opinion instead of direct experience.
Besides the actual reading in class of many poems, I would suggest you do two things: first, while teaching everything you can and keeping free of it, teach that poetry is a mode of discourse that differs from logical exposition.
I want young Indian composers to be able to do more than just film music. I want to give them the skills that will enable them to create their own palette of sounds instead of having to write formulaic music. It doesn't matter if they become sound engineers, producers, composers or performers - I want them to be as imaginative as they like.
If you want to teach women to be great writers, you should show them the best, and the best was often done by men. It was more often done by men than by women, if we're going to be truthful.
As a little girl, I didn't like stories about little girls. I liked stories about dragons and beasts and princes and princesses and fear and terror and the Four Musketeers and almost anything other than nice little girls making moral decisions about whether to tell the teacher about what the other little girl did or did not do.
Essentially, it is the director who is the creative head of a film. The final authority on all decisions lies with the director. That is how it should be. And then other team members can give their creative inputs.
My father, I think he played percussion in high school. My mother played piano when she was very young, but only for a brief while. I don't think she had a great teacher. In any case, neither of them were really into music at a young age.
I'm going to try and do my job and try to make as many plays as I can and help my team win.
I've got leverage on a guy that's 6-6, and I'm strong enough to push 600-plus pounds off on a double-team.
My main focus is playing football and giving it all I got. I'm trying to go out there and make plays and help my team win.
At the end of the day you never know what team still wants what player. You just never know with the draft.
The word thank you ain't enough. You've got to show it, so just go out there and play at a higher level, and instead of saying thank you, show it.
I'm just going out there and doing my job, so whatever it is - if it's a hard slide protection, if it's a double team, or even a triple team or a chip - whatever it is, I'm just finding ways to win, so that's about it.
I'm just playing my game and trying to help my team win. Whatever happens, happens.
It ain't just one guy, it's a team game, and I'll get myself better, I'll keep working on my technique and trying to find ways to free myself and keep making plays.
I've got a good team, got great agents that I know are going to handle the business side, and I trust those guys.
I don't care if it was 2 o'clock in the morning after a night game. I had to break down the film by myself before I watched it with the team. I wanted to see everything I did wrong and did right or I wouldn't be able to sleep.
It's what you work for and grind for. Just to get out there and play the game and try to help your team to win. And in doing that, you just help yourself.
Just have to be smart. Can't hurt your team.
I grew up playing hockey and some football, and I always think about the first time you walk into the locker room on a new team. The cliques are looking at you funny, and you make one friend, but then they're trying to stab you in the back.
Our experience on 'Avatar' heavily influenced how we approached 'The Dragon Prince' and how we built our team.
The characters don't all have to be likable, and they don't all have to be hateable. As long as it's interesting and you connect to them and they resonate with you and you want to find out what happens and it feels authentic, then we have something.
I've just got to go in there and get some quality at-bats and do my job and help the team win any way I can.
My main focus is, 'What can I do today to help the team win the ballgame?' You have those blinders on. It helps you focus.
I know a lot is expected of me, but I'm surrounded by some great teammates.
I just focus on what the team needs me to do to win.
When I think about 2017, I feel like it was just another year. It was a whirlwind, but I wouldn't have wanted it to play out any other way. I'm glad I was in New York. There's nowhere else I would rather play, and there's no other group of teammates that I would rather be around.
When you're on the road, fans pay to cheer on their team and boo the other team; that's just part of it. That's what they're supposed to do. I expect it. I think everybody expects that.
That's your dream, to play professional baseball. When you get the opportunity like that, getting drafted - especially by Oakland, a California team, pretty close to home - it was tempting. At the time, I just didn't think I was ready or mature enough mentally or physically to start pro ball.
I never want to play timid or scared of anything, especially when my pitcher or my teammates are out there going 100 percent.
